In the Capstone project for the Internet of Things specialization, you will design and build your own system that uses at least 2 sensors, at least 1 communication protocol and at least 1 actuator. You will have a chance to revisit and apply what you have learned in our courses to achieve a robust, practical and/or fun-filled project.
We absolutely encourage you to design whatever you can think up! This is your chance to be creative or to explore an idea that you have had. But if you don’t have your own idea, we provide the description of a surveillance system, for you to build. We will participate in the Capstone with you by building a surveillance system that features an off-grid solar powered workstation that will serve as a hub to multiple surveillance sensors.
You will be able to demonstrate the knowledge and skills you have gained in this course through delivery of industry-appropriate documents such as System Design documents and Unit Test reports. Additionally, you will be asked to describe and show case your project as a short video presentation – appropriate for demonstrating your knowledge and technical communication skills.
Learning Goals: After completing this Capstone, you will be able to:
1. Design systems using mobile platforms. You will gain experience in documenting and presenting designs.
2. Develop systems that interface multiple sensors and actuators to the DragonBoard™ 410c system and develop the necessary software to create a fully functional system.
3. Specify unit tests and system tests, run tests and prepare Test Reports as are commonly done by those working in this industry.
4. Gain experience (and feedback!) in making technical presentations.

Capstone, Part 1 - Getting ready

This section will go over the approach our team took while setting up the Capstone project. Here you will see some diagrams, as well as the system components which were used to build our entire systems. We offer recommendations, highlights and examples as to how you can reduce or expand on the project we provide as a template.

Hello everyone and welcome back to the Internet of Things Specialization here at UCSD. I'd like to start off by welcoming you and congratulating you on making it to the Capstone part of this specialization. So yeah. In this project or in this last course of this specialization, we are going to actually make something very exciting. And in fact, you can either follow along or take our tips on what we will be making ourselves and showing you, along with some other examples, or you can just take our ideas and we'll kind of brainstorm a little bit and you can make something else also. As long as it follows the criteria that we're asking. But yeah, so we are going to make a self-sustainable work station for your Dragonboard 410c and it will be geared towards, hopefully, a surveillance system of your own. Now, what we will talk about in this part one of the Capstone course. So we're going to first start off with the approach. Now, the approach is basically the steps that we went through at least the process that we went through while wanting to build our system. So when you're building a self-sustainable system, you have to think, okay, I need power, right? I need to power all these electronics. And we chose solar power. It's everywhere, right? So how do we build the solar power system? What parts do we need? And how will we calculate the needs of our system? So we're going to talk about that a little bit. Then we're going to talk about the components and how we chose the components based on the approach that we took when we wanted to build the system. After that, we're going to go a little bit into the parts, we're actually going to use for the system itself but I also wanted to show you some other projects, some other things that we have done here at UCSD with solar powered systems and self-sustainable work stations. So it's really exciting, we have a bunch of photos that we took. We hopefully will be able to walk you through this whole process, this is just a kind of fun lesson for you and hopefully you can kind of see how we went through this whole process, and in later parts of this course, we will be building it for you. So I look forward seeing you in the later videos.
